  • Hawaii Volcano

    You can surf in the South Pacific. You can scuba dive in the Mediterranean. And you can go whale watching in Norway. While some of Hawaii's most popular attractions and activities can be seen and done elsewhere, getting to visit a live volcano is one of the most unique features of a Hawaiian vacation.

    Hawaii Volcanoes National Park


    There's not another national park in the United States like Hawaii's Volcanoes National Park. Located on the Big Island of Hawaii and covering over 500 square miles, this park includes Kilauea (one of the most active volcanoes on Earth), as well as Mauna Loa (the largest volcano on Earth).

    The word Kilauea translates into “spewing” or “much spreading” in Hawaiian, referring to the frequent lava emissions produced by the volcano. In fact, a lava eruption that began at Kilauea in 1983 still has not stopped. Although it's safe to visit the volcano and its lava flows, in 1987 the current eruption gobbled up Royal Gardens Subdivision and a newly constructed, multi-million dollar museum and visitor's center. In 1990, the volcano's lava obliterated the towns of Kalapana and Kaimu.

    Visitors to the volcano today can come close enough to observe the lava flows directly by driving to the end of Chain of Craters Road. In the past the road was longer, but now it ends where the lava begins.

    Mauna Loa means “long mountain” in Hawaiian. Erupting for the past 700,000 years, Mauna Loa is still active today, although not as active as Kilauea. In the past 3,000 years, Mauna Loa has erupted an average of once every six years; however, its last eruption was in 1984. Some adventurous, physically fit visitors enjoy the long hike up the side of Mauna Loa.

    Other Things to Do and See at Volcanoes National Park


    After taking a look at the lava of Kilauea or hiking Mauna Loa, take advantage of some of the many other unique features of Hawaii's Volcanoes National Park. For the outdoorsy family, there are plenty of day hikes that aren't too strenuous and are even wheelchair and stroller accessible. The park also has space for camping, bike trails for cyclists, and longer, harder wilderness hikes.

    The park has a visitor center that shows a video every hour about Hawaii's volcanoes, as well as a schedule of daily ranger-led activities. The Jaggar Museum, which previously housed the offices of the US Geological Survey's Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, is today devoted to many interesting exhibits on volcanology. Jaggar Museum also includes an overlook, which is one of the best places to observe the most recent eruption of 2008.

    When you plan your trip to Hawaii, be sure to include some time to visit Volcanoes National Park – possibly the most unique national park on the planet.

  • Beach

    The island of Oahu is one of the four major islands of Hawaii. Home to the city of Honolulu, Hawaii's biggest city, Oahu is the island most visitors will initially fly into. To Honolulu's southeast is the community of Waikiki, location of the internationally renowned Waikiki Beach. Although Waikiki only officially covers 1.5 square miles, it is one of the most frequently visited holiday spots in all of Hawaii.

    A Holiday Spot for Centuries


    Waikiki is dotted with high rise resorts and classy hotels. Although the high rises are relatively new, taking a holiday on Waikiki Beach isn't. Since the late nineteenth century, visitors have been making their way to Waikiki Beach to soak up the sun and catch a few waves. In 1893, a Greek-American named George Lycurgus renamed a local guest house “Sans Souci”, which is French for “without care”. Sans Souci became the first beach resort on the island.

    The “First Lady of Waikiki” is the nickname for another historic spot in Waikiki, the Moana Hotel. Opened in 1901, the hotel is still one of the premier places to stay in Waikiki. Some of its visitors have included King Edward VIII and the Olympic swimmer and “father of modern surfing”, Duke Kahanamoku. Just down the road from the Moana is the Royal Hawaiian. Opened in 1927, the Royal Hawaiian's very first guest was Princess Abigail Kawananakoa, who would have been the Queen of Hawaii had the island nation not been incorporated into the United States.

    The Famous Beach


    Waikiki Beach is definitely the most famous beach in Oahu; some might argue that it's the most famous beach in the world. What makes Waikiki Beach so special?

    For starters, the water itself. Close to the shore, the water is gentle, and perfect for swimmers. The gentler water may not be appealing for experienced surfers, but for new surfers, Waikiki Beach makes a great training ground. Kuhio Beach Park, located between the Moana Hotel and Diamond Head, is a popular beach for surfing lessons. Scuba diving, kayaking, canoing, jet skiing, and parasailing are also all available from Waikiki Beach.

    One of the more unique attractions at Waikiki Beach are the shark tours. The adventurous can climb inside a floating shark cage under the water and wait for an up-close look at some of the world's most feared sea creatures. The slightly less adventurous can watch from the plexiglass windows on the tour boat.

    Other Things to Do in Waikiki


    When you get tired of sea creatures and seawater, there's still plenty more to do in Waikiki. The Polynesian Culture Center is a great place to learn about the history and culture of Hawaii. For a drier outdoor activity, try hiking up Diamond Head, a huge volcanic crater that offers a 360-degree view of Waikiki. And for World War II history buffs, touring the Arizona Memorial in Pearl Harbor (a short way from Waikiki) is a must-see.

    In short, no matter what your age, no matter what you like to do, see, or eat, you'll find it in Waikiki.

  • Weather In Hawaii

    With only two seasons, summer and winter, the weather in Hawaii is perfect for a holiday whatever time of the year. For those visiting between November and April you will experience about 25-30 inches of rainfall.  This winter season can make it difficult for holiday-makers to swim and surf on the north shore islands and may be warned to stay out of the water.

    If you’re looking to visit in the summer season then you can enjoy temperatures of around 24ºC-29ºC. All holiday-makers, young and old, are strongly advised to take and apply sunscreen when travelling to Hawaii whatever the season.
